Abstract

Background: To investigate the effect of individualized cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on cardiac function, time consumption, and quality of life (QoL) in post-CABG patients.

Methods: Two different CR strategy: basic rehabilitation and individualized rehabilitation was designed. The patients were screened and randomized into the two groups: the basic rehabilitation group (BRG) and individualized rehabilitation group (IRG). Data, such as clinical characteristics, LVEF, 6MWD (6-min walk distance), BNP, LVEDD (left ventricular end diastolic dimension), SF-36 score, and time consumption were collected and recorded.

Results: There was no difference between the IRG and BRG patients in the clinical characteristics. The 6MWD and LVEF on post-op significantly were higher, while BNP and LVEDD significantly was lower in the IRG than in BRG. The time to first out-of-bed activity, ICU stay time, and post-op hospital stay time of the IRG in post-op was significantly shorter than BRG. The IRG patients scored significantly higher on the SF-36.

Conclusion: Individualized CR is safe and can reduce the time consumption and improve the cardiac function and QoL of patients undergoing CABG.
